Sarocha's Thai Restaurant — Restaurant in Dodge City

I stopped in Dodge City and after a week of nothing but chain restaurants serving burgers, steak and mexican food I was really looking forward to something different.

I have been to Thailand for holidays many times, and my wife who was with me in Dodge City lived in Bangkok for some time so we have both tasted the best foods available in Bangkok.
